Every feature is explained, with screenshots, in the help center.

MoneyMatter shows you where your money is and where it goes. Add accounts by hand or sync them from your bank, and it turns your transactions into balances, a dashboard and reports in one base currency. It goes beyond cash: investments, loans, vehicles and private deals are part of your net worth too. Any AI agent can work with your data over MCP.

Get started

Try it. The Try demo button on moneymatter.app opens a ready-made account with sample data. No sign-up required, and it expires after four hours.

Self-host. The stack pulls published Docker images (amd64; ARM hosts can build from source) and exposes the whole app on one port, so you can put it behind whatever reverse proxy you already run, or use the optional Traefik + Let's Encrypt overlay.

git clone https://github.com/letehaha/moneymatter.git
cd moneymatter/self-hosting
cp .env.example .env   # then fill the REQUIRED section
docker compose up -d

Open http://<host>:8080. The self-hosting guide covers the full setup, reverse-proxy recipes, every environment variable and troubleshooting.

Cloud. Sign up for a 40-day free trial with no card. Paid plans start at $30 a year. See plans and billing for details. You can move between cloud and self-hosted in either direction with a backup export and restore.

Connect an AI agent

MoneyMatter exposes a remote MCP server. Add the endpoint to Claude, ChatGPT or any MCP client, pick the access level on the consent screen, and ask questions the UI can't answer: "Which of my subscriptions got more expensive this year?" or "Where can I realistically cut $500 a month?"

https://mcp.moneymatter.app/mcp

A self-hosted instance serves its own endpoint. See MCP_BASE_URL in the environment reference. Connected apps are listed and revocable under Settings → AI.
